It was just one element of a nationwide day of action called "One day without us" which aimed to protest against what the organizers perceive as a vilification of immigrants after the Brexit referendum in June last year.
The campaign coincided with a mass lobby at the British parliament.
As Adam Dąbrowski, our London-based correspondent, reports, around 1,000 people gathered to demand that MPs should unilaterally guarantee the rights of EU citizens who already live in the UK.
